The truck plants may open short term but they will be closing soon. Dealers do not want truck inventory! Gas and Diesel fuel prices are killing truck sales. Unless we have a major drop in fuel prices truck sales will never rebound.

That was a rather fatalistic, short-sighted look at things. There will always be a need for trucks. People are just reacting to sticker shock. The entire ecomony is in the market. Construction is at a standstill. It'll probably be 6 months to 1 year before things begin to improve. Ever heard of the "Great Depression"? Well, we recovered from that. Wouldn't hurt have a government that is of some service or help to its citizens, as opposed to one that keeps compounding the problems.
Trucks are very useful, it how America gets her work done. I don't own a truck, never did. I may buy an old junker for hauling stuff around, hate hauling lumber and other hardware in a luxury sedan.
